Seeing the light

In photography one of the greatest challenges many people make is seeing the light. Photography is all about light. Without light, we would not be able to take photographs. I strive to find dramatic light, even if I have to enhance it or create it. The featured photo of this blog post was shot at 1:40 PM on a brightly sunlit day. I won’t go into the intimate details of how I achieved the lighting except to say I saw potential in the scene with how the light was falling. As artists, we need to follow the light. See the light, or if need be create the light.

Just as in photography, our daily life is about seeing the light. If there is darkness, follow the light but if needed, create the light.
